A Day in the Life of a Master(s) of Education

This past weekend was pretty exciting for me I must say. I have lived in this city for over 2 years (wow! Where did the time go?) and had not done a few things on my ATL bucket list. So I took it upon myself to check off a few. I attended Rainbow Days @ Six Flags Over Georgia!! (check) It was pretty empty for some odd reason so I was able to ride every coaster (check) and I got to see another celeb(check). This time it was Evander Holifield, former heavy weight boxer best known for being the guy who got his ear bitten off by Mike Tyson (cocaine is one hell of a drug). He looked pretty good and very nonchalant. In fact the only reason I recognized him readily was because there was a recent post about him on my fave ATL blog/gossip/info page Straight from the A . I also got to check out some Looney Tunes characters which was pretty cool seeing as I kinda have an intimate connection with that kind of thing...wink wink. I've added some photos for your viewing pleasure and that's al...

Waddup Blogger World! So as many of you know, my parents have come to Atlanta for a visit to which I have been affectionately refering to as "Hurricane Hemmings". I love my parents dearly but they are stressful and tiring. The other night at dinner I had a revelation as to why that is. One parent can't hear and the other parent just doesn't listen. It was an eye opening experience and ever since then I have been much more relaxed on this visit. So what's on the agenda you ask...I'm glad you did! If I keep them busy they are less likely to annoy the ever loving life out of me. We will be going to The World Of Coca-Cola , Centennial Olympic Park , Mary Mac's Tea Room , The Atlanta Botanical Garden , Stone Mountain Park, Atlantic Station and a few other stops here and there. I'm cramming a lot into a 4 day visit but again I cannot stress enough how this is my version of "batting down the hatches" for this hurricane. Hopefully I will survive, bu...

What takes over my life for two weeks every four years? The Summer Olympics of course! I love the Olympics b/c of the spirit behind it. To me (and I think the rest of the world too) the olympics are about being on an even playing field and universal commadarie. For two weeks every four years we set aside our wars and our differences and just try make our countrymen proud. In addition most of the athletes are amped to meet and compete against their idols or people who are generally important to their respective sport. This year was especially awesome for me because this is the first Olympics in history (thirty games thus far) where every country has sent a woman delegate. Keep making strides world!!!! So being Jamaican I generally always watch the track and field events if nothing elses,this year I decided I was going to watch as much of the televised events as I possibly could. Its been pretty cool because I think I have seen just about every event from Judo to Shooting to Archery to ...
